"Misinformation works" and "is a great tactic"

The average IQ is around 100. That means that 50% of the people have IQs less than average. That can account for the attitude of most republicans and all of the Trump followers.

It is ironic of tianna mann to make that statement given the fact he/she has stated several different times that all he/she is here to do is "create a little doubt."

In other words basically, the same thing Ayn Rand "Got my Butt Whooped in my own Front Yard" Paul just said. Wouldn't expect anything else from tianna "village liar" mann.

I didn't realize it until the early 2000s, but looking back over the last 50 years it looks like this has always been a GOP tactic... just mislead people with hot button issues and clickbait, do whatever you have to do to get the vote.


It's even easier for them now, with so many people getting their news from memes and headlines while ignoring the actual facts and details. People have become willing sheep.

We're seeing a deeper and deeper divide between the people that know what's going on... and those that just think they know what's going on because they saw a meme...

I have found that misinformation or lying is not as good as the truth. Everyone hides the truth. It is the last thing they want told. I have told the unspoken truth here on GW and you may have noticed the hornets' nest it stirred up.

"I never ever cheated and I don't condone cheating, but I would sometimes spread misinformation," [Rand Paul (R)] said during the lecture. "And this is a great tactic. Misinformation can be very important."

Paul explained that he and a group of fellow students had once "started spreading the rumor that we knew" what was on an upcoming test, to "try to trick all of our competing students" into studying for the wrong subject.

"That's my advice, misinformation works," said Paul. "So, try to trick your opponents into knowing that the test is about something that it's not."
